Rimmel Match Perfection Blush

Rimmel London Match Perfection Blush - perfectly coordinated blush shades with a hint of blue saphire for a naturally even flush.  Use each shade individually or swirl and mix the two to create your own unique shade.

I am generally quite the clumsy oaf, but I amn't responsible for that tiny chip on the side of that blush!  Now that's clarified, on to the blush itself.  The Rimmel Match Perfection blush is comes packaged in a flat round pan - quite large sized.  The blush has two shades in it, packed with a pretty pattern embossed on the surface.  Mix the two shades or use individually - the size is large enough that you can easily pick up the shades without mixing.

The plastic top had cracked a bit when I got it, but the blush was mostly undamaged, so I am quite happy with the packaging.  Another thing I like is the little lock feature so I can easily carry it around in the bag without worrying about it accidentally opening.

The little dot goes into the groove and keeps the lid locked on.

Rimmel Match Perfection Blush - 001 Light - Review/Swatches

My initial reaction when I saw the colour was that it's never going to be seen on my skin.  The shades included in this blush are a dusty rose and a paler peach rose - both the shades are almost matte but do have the tiniest hint of a shimmer.  The shades are quite pigmented, smooth, and easy to blend.  As for showing up on my skin, I really couldn't get it to show up in the photos as this shade gives me an almost invisible flush.  While not the shade for me, for anyone with a lighter skin tone, this would be a beautiful blush that would give the most natural flush.  I am adding in swatches just to give an idea about the colour (these are very heavily swatched to show up on my skin - actual product goes on quite light and subtle).

Rimmel Match Perfection Blush Swatches (L to R):  Darker colour, paler colour, and the two colours mixed.

Overall, I find this quite a decent blush.  I would probably pick a darker shade than this, but for anyone with a lighter skin tone, this should show up quite well.  It's easy to blend and the light flush that I do get stays on the whole day.  One minor problem, though, this is supposed to have 3 colours in the pan, and I am not sure if I just got an odd piece or the colour is that way, but it looks like two colours to me :P

The only way I could think of 3 colours is mixing the 2 in the pan - if anybody knows any better do let me know :D

I don't know the cost of this right now - it's one of those rare occasions when Google failed me - but soon as I know, I will update it here!
